“…Indeed, there is some evidence that integrating individual traits into a framework of victimization risk increases explanatory power and can illuminate how individual traits lessen or increase the risks of becoming a victim. For example, early work by von Hentig (1941) emphasized the importance of physical strength as a trait that increases the chances of being a victim, whereas more recent work by Felson (1986Felson ( , 1998 provides evidence that social bonds act as insulators against victimization. Similarly, Schreck and colleagues (2002) provide evidence that low self-control increases the risks of physical victimization, and show how low self-control increases the risk of a homicide victimization.…”

Although much research has established a link between pubertal development and adolescent involvement in offending, drug use, and other adverse outcomes, no research has examined whether puberty is associated with experiences of violent physical victimization. This is an unfortunate oversight because researchers are only beginning to understand the range of adverse outcomes associated with puberty-and information on this front bears relevance for public health discussions regarding the consequences of pubertal development. Here, the authors use data from Add Health to examine whether puberty is associated with victimization and whether the effect of puberty on victimization is moderated by peer context (i.e., the proportion of deviant, opposite-sex, and older friends in the peer social network). In addition, the authors examine whether these associations operate similarly or dissimilarly for male and female adolescents. Findings indicate that among both males and females, puberty is associated with victimization net of a series of controls, though the effect is stronger among males. Analyses also indicate that for boys, puberty has a weaker effect when their friendship network has a higher proportion of girls in it. The effect of puberty on victimization was not moderated by peer context variables among females. Future theoretical and empirical research directions are suggested.

Victims and the Criminal Justice System: The Vagaries of Integration

In the U. S., some claim victim integration into criminal justice is nearly complete, as evidenced by the implementation of various victim rights and service programs nationwide. Others claim integration has been scarcely realized, as evidenced by the practices associated with these rights and programs. A question that subsequently emerges is not simply which claim is more accurate, but rather how is the success or failure of integrative efforts to be determined. Success defined by the presence of victim rights and service programs ignores operational realities, whereas failure defined by those realities has focused on the contrary state of victim participation in criminal justice decision-making. This particular empirical focus overlooks a host of other operational realities by which to assess success or failure. The current study reports on certain of these neglected realities, namely the role of criminal justice in facilitating service delivery, and criminal justice perspectives on victim service needs and victims. These perspectives are examined using survey data obtained from 893 criminal justice officials Oaw enforcement officers, judges, state's attorneys, and probation officers) from a large Florida County. The findings show the integration process is still wanting in the following respects: criminal justice perceptions of victims are often negative, criminal justice knowledge of victims services is lacking, and victim service delivery is highly fragmented. The meaning and policy implications ofthese findings are also discussed.

“…Hans fon Hentig je prvi autor koji se bavio istraživanjem interakcije između žrtava i učinilaca (Hentig, 1940) i ukazao na činjenicu da ista osoba može biti i prestupnik i žrtva krivičnog dela (Hentig, 1948, prema Berg, Stewart, Schreck & Simons, 2012). U narednih nekoliko decenija istraživači su uglavnom bili zaokupljeni tretiranjem pitanja koja se odnose na viktimizaciju i prestupništvo zasebno, pri čemu su tradicionalne kriminološke teme prvenstveno bile usmerene ka pitanjima prestupništva.…”
